Hybrid Observatory Concept Could Find Earth-like Worlds | NASA

Hybrid Observatory Concept Could Find Earth-like Worlds | NASA

Researchers are working on a new concept that could help us search for Earth-like exoplanets like never before. By combining the light-blocking capability of an in-space starshade with the immense power of the largest ground-based telescopes, the Hybrid Observatory for Earth-like Exoplanets concept could change the way we hunt for Earth-like planets beyond our own.

We take a look at the NASA Innovative Advanced Concept (NIAC) that could help us hunt for Earth-like worlds. To learn more visit: https://go.nasa.gov/3EdqgRa

This video represents a research study within the NASA Innovative Advanced Concepts (NIAC) program. NIAC is a visionary and far-reaching aerospace program, one that has the potential to create breakthrough technologies for possible future space missions. However, such early-stage technology developments may never become actual NASA missions.
